Ms Pacheco is very pretty but her on camera demeanor is sometimes a bit...flakey. She does know her stuff but sometimes she looks like she does espresso and Red Bull shooters between races.

Jan does know her stuff. She galloped for Shug for years. When she goes out and gets some info from trainers she offers some useful tidbits. Usually she does just read what anyone looking at the program already knows. Too bad. She has also allowed herself (maybe been involved) to become a bit of a "camp" figure. Not sure if thats good or bad.
Also, where Jan is concerned, the on-air person is only as good as the people behind the scenes. Last week, she has issues with the microphone one day and with the camera on another. There seems to be little co-ordination between the cameraman, Jan and the rest of the simulcast team when they are at Aqueduct. Sometimes Jan comes on at 10 mtp, other times 4 mtp. That sort of thing should be set in stone.
